I am having some difficulties...I need some advice. I was banded on 12.20.2007 I have lost 90lbs, yeah!! I still have 120lbs to go. Okay this could get long, but it has been a rough past three months. I had a fill in October and my band was up to 3.4cc (I have a 4cc band). I then moved to Taiwan for a teaching job. The first 2 months I was here I was having a lot of problems with acid reflux, I was not able to keep much food down and was quite miserable. I found a labpand Dr. in Taipei so I went to see him, we did a barium swallow xray and noticed I was too tight, so he took out 2cc to let my esphogus and stomach have a break (my esophogus was enlarging a bit trying to compensate for the food not being able to go down). Well, I was able to eat quite a bit of food and I put on a couple of pounds, so I went back Monday a month after the unfill and had a fill. We decided to put 1cc back in. I was unable to even get liquids down, I was quite miserable. Well, I went back to his office on Tuesday and was unable to get unfilled because we realized the port was flipped, I have noticed that they always have a hard time finding my port, so we did a surgery and reflipped my port, while in there he took out .5cc. Okay, so now I am two days out of surgery and I am having acid reflux and I am able to get some liquids down, but it is not easy. All I can think is that maybe I am a bit swollen from doing a fill and unfill within two days. Any advice, how would I know if I had a slippage?
